Accompanying CD-ROM contains ... "EKI-3, the elaborate and easy-to-use version of the enzyme kinetics practical course."--Page 4 of cover.
Explores the extensive changes in the use of enzymes as well as the discovery of new enzymes and their applications. Includes a history of enzymes in food processing, enzyme characterization, a discussion of the various classes of enzymes (including lipases and proteases), comme…
A guide providing a brief account of the main protein fractionation methods, with some simple theoretical and thermodynamic explanations of the events occurring, for students and researchers involved in the process of isolating an enzyme, from whatever source. A basic background…
This book helps readers emphasize the estimation of kinetic parameters with the minimum number of velocity measurements, thereby reducing the amount of laboratory work necessary, and allowing more time for the consideration of complicated mechanisms. The book systematically prog…
This book focuses on lipids and the lipid bilayer, as well as on membrane protein structure and function. It provides an integrated view of membranes as functioning units and incorporates recent advances in membrane protein structure, membrane rafts and membrane fusion. The role…
Free Radicals in Human Health and Disease
The role of oxidative stress in human disease has become an area of intense interest. Free radicals, a normal product of metabolism, exist in all aerobic cells in balance with biochemical antioxidants. Environmental stress increases the levels of free radicals drastically, there…
Adopting a unique approach, this novel textbook integrates science and business for an inside view on the biotech industry. Peering behind the scenes, it provides a thorough analysis of the foundations of the present day industry for students and professionals alike: its history…
This book describes nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) functions in higher plants. Much progress has been made in the field of NO and H2O2 research regarding the various mechanisms and functions of these two molecules, particularly regarding stress tolerance and sign…
Abstract: Fundamental reference information on enzymes and their functions in relation to food characteristcs is provided. Introductory material includes the basics of enzymology, commercial enzyme production, control of enzymes, and management of their action. Enzyme action is …
Nutrition is a very broad discipline, encompassing biochemistry, physiology, endocrinology, immunology, microbiology and pathology. Presenting the major principles of nutrition of both domestic and wild animals, this book takes a comparative approach, recognizing that there are …
